The site of the wigwam in which Red Jacket was born, 
was definitely located in the Indian town of Skanayu-

Jesuits near Waterloo; Interesting adventures 
in 165 6-'68 among Cayuga Indians; the location of 
three Missions on Cayuga Lake: 

Jesuit Missions, in the seventeenth century, establish 
ed and conducted by Priests of that order from France, 
were among the very earliest ..I white civilization to 
n>]| m upon this country about Waterloo. Their ex- 
perience among the cruel and war seeking people of 
the live nations, whose villages were scattered all 
■'bout tin-,, one of the most important on site of 
Waterloo— are replete with personal sufferings and 
strange adventures. 

On the cast shore of Cayuga lake, near the present 
village of Union Springs, af the chief town ,,f the 
Cayuga Indians, called Oiogouen, the Jesuits planted 
thru lirsl mission west of Onondaga. Father Joseph 
Chaumont and Rene Menaft, in the hitter part ol 
August 1656, arrived at tins place accompanied by a 
small party of friendly Cavuga and Onondaga In- 
dians. I he} had ■ 01 n Fo it along the trail fr 

Onondaga -a two days' jourm v. 

The town whii h was then the [.lace where all of 
the great chiefs of the Cayugas resided, is spoken of 
twelve years later by lather Estienne de Carheil, 
who in 1668 re-established the mission, as a town of 
"2000 souls and over 300 warriors." It was on 
Gully brook three-and-one-half miles south of Union 
Springs. 

Although the Cayugas had asked for the mission. 
Fathers Char ait and Menart were received

carpeted it [the chapel] with tin finest mats," he 
writes, "1 hung up in it the pi, tine oi 1 lui I ord and 
Our Lady. The novelty of the spectacle so astonished 
the barbarians that they came in crowds to gazeat it." 
Several Huron captives from north of the Great 
Lakes where the Jesuits had had their missions for 
years, were held as slaves of the Cayugas in this vil- 
lage. Thev had reported to their red masters tli.it 

the church. The Jesuits always first proceeded to 
baptize those who were at the point of death to pre- 
pare them for heaven, which accounted for so many 
deaths among the baptized and no doubt suggested 
to then- darkened minds (he belief which the Huron 
1 aptives expressed. 

Father Menart, constantly watchful for his own 
safety, went among the people day and night be- 
seeching them to accept the faith, attending the sick 
and baptizing both voting and old. 

rhe children he soon succeeded in winning and 
they materially aided him. "They introduced me 
into the cabins," he writes; "they waited for me at 
the plans whire I stopped, and they told me the 
names of the children whom I baptized, as well as 
those of their parents. These names the barbarians 
■ 're in the habit of carefully concealing from us, be- 
cause thev think that we write them down to send 
them to France and there procure their death by 
magic."

GRIP'S" HISTORICAL SOUVENIR OF WATERLOO. 



Dream Demons Adventures of a Jesuit Mis- 
sionary near Waterloo: — The experience of the resuit 
missionary Father Joseph Chaumonot at the village 

of Oiog , with craz) savages is related l>> him as 

follows, i Hogouen, as is told elsewhere in this work, 

the capital of the Cayuga Indians, si 1 near the 

present village of Union Springs, N. V., a site oi 
greater historic interest than any other of thi si ven- 
teenth century localities in this section of the country. 

I' at her Chain lot, preaching to the Cayugas— alone 

among the pagans witnessed at Oiogouen on Feb- 
j j, [656 a "feast of dreams" a festival to the "Dream 
Demon" called Honnonouaroria, of their period- 
ical carnivals, when men, women and children ran 
through the streets absolute!) naked, making both 
night and day hideous with their cries and frenzied 
contortions. Each and every one was supposed to 
havi had a dream whii h he 01 he dem inded of 
s ie one to have fulfilled, due of the savages en- 
tered tie priest's 1 abin, which the latter had tempor- 
.11 1 K \ a. a ted, getting out of the \ illage to escape the 
"riot," as he termed it. I Ie demanded a Frenchman 

• 'I ol the Indian la 11 ill \ saving th.it he had lire. mil 

that he had killed one and Ins dream must be 
fulfilled. 

rheheadof the family, loyal to the French priest who 
lived with him, threw the Indian interlopei .1 I n ni I 
man's coat, pretending that it had been taken from a 
dead Frenchman. This appeased the savage who was 
looking lor a Frenchman to kill; but Chaumonot's 
host, to better confirm his representation and save the 
hie ni the priest, assumed for himsell a part in the 
carnival. Declaring that the death of the French- 
man must be aV.enged he ran into the street shouting 
that he would set the village on fire to avenge thi

of the "diviner." A woman brought in a mat win, h 
she spread out as though ..itching fish, indicating 
that 011K a present of fish would content her. An- 
other woman laid a mattock on the ground indii at- 

ing that she wanted a field or ] :e of corn. "She 

received five furrows for planting corn," adds the 
priest. 

\ woman die unci wh.. ran about until she had 
been seized with illness, was plied with em, 1 ics com 
pounded of roots, so vigorously that her stomach 
burst and let out two kettlefuls of water.

At another time, in the same village of ( liogouen,

whole earth destroyed. 

"Thou wishes) to give a feast of human flesh," said 
. me . .1 th. chief: "Here, take ni> brother. I place 

him in Ihv hands to cut up on the spot, and put into 
the kettle/' 

Fortunately for the brothei the dreamer declared 
that Ills , Ilea 111 repined a w oilian, w hoin he no doubt

This story is related of Sir Win. Johnson and a 
Cayuga chief who entertained him. The latter fan- 
cied a handsome scarlet jacket which no doubt was 
shown to excite the savage's cupidity Sir William 
was quite familiar with the ways of the Indian. The

"GRIP'S" HISTORICAL SOUVENIR OF WATERLOO. 



The "Seneca County News" was originally 

established asa demoi rati, paper at Waterloo, X. Y., 
by the Hon. Albert L. Child-, in the year [878. For 
what reason was not then apparent, as the town al- 
read) had a Democratic paper. Party exigencies 

and the personal ambitions of the Hon Sa I I 

Tilden are, however, frequently given as the motive 

which led to the establisl 1 1 1 here of another 

Democratic paper. Be that as it may, can we not 
say that, in the light of subsequent events, tin- 
founder builded better than he knew. In September 
of 1885 "The News" passed into the hands of Mr. 
Elias Vair and Mr. James £. Medden, and was con- 
tinued for the next ten years under the firm name of 
Vair & Medden. With a change of ownership came 
a change of politics. Up to this time Waterloo had 
been without a local organ, and dependant upon "The 
Courier," published at Seneca falls, then the only 
republican paper in the county. It is now known as 
the "Courier-Journal." for favorable results in chang- 
ing republican to democratic majorities in the town 
"The News" modestly claims its share of the credit, 
to which it is justly entitled and generously accorded 
In an appreciative constituency. In the' fall of 1895. 
Mi Medden retired from the firm of Vair & Medden, 
and Mr. Vaii has since 1 onducted "The News" alone, 
being now tin' oldest editor and publisher, with one 
exception, in continuous service in Seneca county. 
That " lhe News" has maintained its high standard 
ol excellence and influence in the party is evidenced 
by the many good words accorded by it's contempor- 
aries on the attainment of its twenty-first birthday, 
to wit: "One of the most vigorous organs that the 
republican part) has in Central New York." "One 
ol the most carefully edited of our exchanges." "An 
enterprising, clean and able local newspaper." "A 
credit to the town in which it is published." 

Alonzo H. Terwilliger is deserving of mention 
among those wdio have made Waterloo the place that 
it is today. He wasbornin Preble, Cortland county, 
Jan. 31, 1831, and thirty-seven years ago came to 
Waterloo and established a coal and lumber business 
under the firm name, if Walker, Lathrop & Co., a 

business which shortly aftei he ass, I alone and 

conducted very sui cessfully until his death on June 
26th, [902. In the later years of his life his sun 
Chas. 1'. Terwilliger has been ass,,, iated with him in 
the business taking its burdens largely from his 
father's should, as. A. II. Terwilliger was for many 
years a director of the First National Bank of Water- 
loo, was a vestryman and warden of St. Paul's 
Episcopal church and also president of the board of 
trustees of the Mist,,,,, al society. Mis integrib ol 
character and acts oi kindness are today and ever 
«'ll be living 111, ,1111111, nts more to be admired than 
chiseled marble 01 polished granite. There is today- 
only one other business iii Waterl f as long con- 
tinuous duration as that ,,l A. II. Terwilliger. 

Church Accident. Under the direction ol 

1,1 1 Rosa the lust building ,,f the Presbyterian 

1 ha,, h was being ere< ted when in raising the towei 
the timbers gave way and fell to the ground. Messrs, 

Wells, Kmg and ( ) R, f sworth were struck, the 

formet being killed. King lost a leg. Farnsworth 
recovered with, ml serii ius injui y. I hree or four 



Relics Exhumed. -During the summer of 1903, 
John Kuney, near Waterloo excavated the remains of 
a fire-place. During the past twenty vearsMr. Kuney 
in plowing the field has always struck rock at the 
same place. This year In- dci ided to dig it up. The 
"fire-place" is made of limestone and 111 the shape ol 
a caldron. The stone is the same as is quarried 
aeross the canal, from ,,1,1 dwellers in the vicinity 
it appi ars that no one had lived at this site 111 sixtv 
years previous to Mr. Kuney taking rq, his residence 
there, which was twenty years ago. The land for- 
merly was covered with pine trees and up to a few 
years ago Mr. Kunn used to obtain his drinking 
water from two line springs near the excavated "fire- 
place rhe fire-place being in a crumbling condi- 
tion the excavation was filled in. There is another 

Indian III, q,l. 1, e ill the same field. W. I . Bl Hows 

of Rochester went over the ground and picked up half 
a dozen Indian arrow heads. Ihe Kuney farm is in 
the path taken b\ Sullivan in his campaign against 
the Five Nation, and was undoubtedly the sit of an 
Indian settlement. 

Indians; character and domestic affairs of the 
Cayugas: Very interesting are accounts of the Indians 
who roamed the country hereabouts, as they lived in 
the seventeenth century. Their "chief virtue," said 
the Jesuits, was cruelty which they taught their child- 
ren. Their first war parties were merely to shed 
blood. These are pushed hundreds of miles, merely 
for war-scalps and prisoners which they bring home 
to butcher. Prisoners are often adopted by Indian 
families to fill the place of a deceased member— - 
father, husband or brother. Many Indian women 
procure husbands from captives, the latter having 
nothing to say. On the other hand when the enemy 
has been butchered long enough he is united to 
move his entire village into the country of his con- 
queror and become a part of the nation. 

Tiohero, the Indian village at Cavuga outlet was 
made up largely of Huron and Andastagues, Indian 
captives ol the Cayugas. Their marriages were 
celebrated with the same eclat as among the whites. 
The wife and husband each continued to live with 
relatives large and numerous families usually live 
together — until a child is born. The husband hunts, 
fishes and makes war; the wife cultivates the soil. 

Illness demands presents, 'flic soul wants some- 
thing it has not got. All neighbors bring presents. 
"A dying man may be seen surrounded bj awls, 
scissors, knives, bells, needles, and a thousand other 
trifles." His death is attributed to failure 111 bring- 
ing him the artii le his soul wanted. 

'the grave ,,| the dead is filled with pr,,\ isioiis and 
Ins friends feast and lament, making night hideous 
with their , 1 ies I he loss of a son or husband in bat- 
tle , an be made g 1 l,v getting another. Apresenl 

All Indian I. lies m a village have fo "I as long 

as it lasts, ( I a vear the sex era I tribes or families 

meet and exchange presents, 'lhe primitive red men. 
those who inhabited the Milages of Seneca and Cav- 
uga counties, were undoubtedly strange people with 
many remarkable customs, as the) were found by the 
wdiite men. Of course, like all semi-civilized or 

lg ant people, the} were superstitious and feared 

w itches. 

Slavery among them was verve non. Captives 

and even their own kinsmen wci" made to drudge 
foi then masters; and life was of no .account. He 

who truck first in anger could make g I to kins

Seneca County 111 tli'' 17th century; Beautiful 
Country Abounding with Came: Father Raffeix 
was sent to Oiogouen, the capital ol the Cay- 
ugas, to temporarily take the place of Lather d? 
Carheil in 1671. He writes: "Goiogouen is the 
Fairest country that I have seen in America. It 
is a tract situated betwei 11 two lakes ami nol exi eed 
ing lour leagues in width, consisting of almost un- 
interrupted plains, the w Is bordering which are 

extremely beautiful. \nmee is a very narrow valley 
often abounding m stones and always covered with

killed annually more than a thousand deer. Fish- 
salmon, as well as eels and oilier kinds are as plen- 
tiful here as at Onnontague [Onondaga]. Four 
leagues from here 1 saw by the sale of a river [Seneca
